The Municipality of Barcelos is studying projects to face a serious crisis in legalized trade in ornamental fish, representing 60% of the economy in place and the $ 2 million per year in the region. With the closing of the company's Aquarium Turky by court order last month, about 5000 people benefited directly and indirectly with the company were without income. That's because the Turky was the largest city in the export segment of ornamental fish and a ban harmed other companies in the same industry, jeopardizing thousands of jobs that depend on legalized capture of ornamental fish to survive.
The company was closed in compliance with a decision of the Court of Para, on the 22nd of last month. The group is being sued by environmental crime and conspiracy.

This percentage, Barcelos, with 25 thousand inhabitants, is responsible for most of the production. Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger ...
